Hi, If you are comfortable with soldering iron then de-solder the transformer winding wires from wherever these are attached to. Check for shortage between primary & secondary winding too - in my hifi valve amp one of the secondary transformers went to heaven for that reason - very rare failure i was told but nothing I could do about it. 🤦♂️ If the transformers are fine then the fault is obviously somewhere else, just a common sense and look for any wire detached or anything that looks burnt out.. That Mullard ECC83 is indeed worth few quid, don’t rub it clean as if there is a code printing on it it rubs off easily and actually this code can tell what year the tube was ,,born,, etc.. Wish i had this, fingers itching.. I hope though that the fault has nothing to do with transformers as that is the most expensive component here.. (bar the tubes if any of these are causing it but then any cheap new production tubes would do for the purpose of troubleshooting ).

Finally just offered up the brushed ali guard I got and I’m super happy with how it looks. Sorta glad I stayed with the silver to be honest.
-
Ok so took off the pick guard to check out the electronics. They look very puny so I am glad I already ordered a prewired set of CTS/switchcraft electronics from Tiny Tone. Should arrive soon so I can solder them in.

Ok so got the new bridge. Compared it against a Hipshot one on my other P and the BBOT on the Squire. I like it.

Does the world need another Fender copy with fake aging? And if so what makes this better than all the other Fender copies with fake aging?

Barefaced Big Twin 2 Gen 3 or 2 x BB3 stack
Chienmortbb replied to Paddy Morris's topic in Amps and Cabs
There is no magic to having two cabs. The power is split between the cabs giving the drivers an easier time. When you start pushing a speaker, power compression creeps in and close to maximum power will rob you of half you volume. Beyma used to publish power compression graphs for their drivers but as no-one else did, it looked to the layman that they were the only ones that suffered it. The second cab is also closer to your ears and that has to be a good thing. -
I would happily to be in a band with either of them because they are both proven to be excellent writers and I do not think their views are unreasonable, some of linemans actions do seem to be highly questionable but to be fair we don't yet know the full story. I would also note that historically many of the most creative people have not just kowtowed to the currently fashionable ideallogys and have dared to question the beliefs they have been pressured to hold whether that be religious orthodoxy, the demonisation of homosexuality,the superiority of their own culture or the trans ideology opposed by the aforementioned public figures.

Small "Hifi" amp head recommendations sought!
andyhaines replied to andyhaines's topic in Amps and Cabs
Thanks - those frequencies make sense to me. And having independent headphone volume from the master is really useful: If I'm in a cramped band pit in a theatre I'm often very close to my cab but also invariably the keyboard player's personal monitor which can blitz out a lot of what I can hear. Being able to run headphones as well as the cab would be very cool. Also just noticed the inclusion of a 9v 250ma power output which would be super useful to run my EQ2 pedal off - only need to bring one power cable! -
